      Finally finished an article on drive appearance that's I've been meaning to do for years. Needed that done so that I can work on the Linux LVM stuff.

      LVM things online are generally one of two things. 1) Very basic 2) Overly complicated. I've not found a practical guide/training for it really. In the newer file systems (thinking brtfs here) LVM isn't used, but all the principals behind LVM are still in use.

      That's why the first article had to be about drive appearances. the next will be about logical volume management. Then the articles on LVM itself can begin.

              EUTELSAT

              For this mission, SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket will deliver two commercial communications satellites to Geostationary Transfer Orbits (GTO). The two satellites, EUTELSAT 117 West B and ABS-2A, are operated respectively by Eutelsat and ABS – two companies that provide global communications services to a variety of users

                Well, flagged another question:

                0_1465968075226_upload-5ca034a8-4a4b-4a5a-98a8-36c862273039

                ISA was superseded by ForeFront TMG and UAG years ago which both are EOL with no replacement at all. IMHO, having a proxying frontend (Postfix, Exim, Courier or even sendmail) somewhere "outside" (cloud / off-site / DMZ) is way better than letting someone connect directly to your Exchange. Got roughly 10% bad answers overall at SW - and in 90% of these cases it's about bad questions.

                    @JaredBusch the RUD should make for some cool footage when it is released.

                      Yes, and that is something I like about SpaceX. They always do release it.

                        Nice to see some other Elon Musk fanboys. I'm alone where I live sadly.

                          The video game system is being packed up. You know we are really leaving when that happens.

                            He's an interesting character that's for sure. I like that he's doing it but it saddens me that we need such a character to make this sort of progress.

                              He's definitely a weirdo, and I imagine he's kind of a douche in person, but I support what he does 1000%. Richard Branson too, as the 2 of them are leading the privatization of the space industry (IMO the only way it will survive and progress). If I had a quarter million to piss away, I'd buy a ticket on Branson's space plane, just to help advance the commercial space flight industry.

                                Just finished up a minor 'kill time' project.

                                0_1466023112833_18650 phone booster.jpg

                                Using parts from Amazon and Adafruit, took a 18650 cell and turned it into a battery booster. Right side is the charger that will also have a port for using Solar. Left side boosts to charge any USB device... Switched to reduce battery drain when not in use.

                                  Looking good. Two comments:

                                  1. You should add some tubes to the switch. A bit much of tin solder. Next to a short circuit 😉
                                  2. Your GND connection on the module on the right side of the picture (BAT -) doesn't look too great.

                                      I would like to have one,.. it would help with the other project I have in the line.

                                        We're just in the process of buying one. First thing to print will be a stand for the official 7" Raspberry Pi displays.

                                            Yeah, was just what I saw when I had a quick look at it. Anyway, good idea and the result looks like it will do the job.
